Welcome to Donji Milanovac!
The city of sun, roses and relaxation. The city of wonderful people and river. The city where you will always feel welcome and to which you will gladly return.
Donji Milanovac has always lived from the Danube and for the Danube. That’s the reason why both its history and its future cannot be separated from this great river.
We wish you pleasant moments and the best memories. Take the opportunity to get to know this charming town and its people. And first, take a walk around the town to get to know us better.

Local fish specialties, polenta(boiled cornmeal) – ’mamaljiga’, grilled white cheese, ’plašinte’ are only a part of gastronomic offer. And if you go on a cruise on the Danube with local guides, you will enjoy the unreal nature, history but also incredible stories about Danube sturgeons or Beluga fish and the famous caviar.

The Danube, that mighty river, has always been full of life, and that’s why we can talk about local history for days. But you definitely need to know that Donji Milanovac is a town that has moved three times but always remained faithful to its river. The history of Donji Milanovac is the history of the river and wonderful people and it is being recorded for over 400 years.
The guardian of history is also the Orthodox Church of St. Nicholas, which shares the fate with its residents. It also guards the burial place of the greatest Danube captain Miša Anastasijević, the most famous Porec resident who marked the 19th century of Serbian history.
